15. Downtown PDX here...all quiet on the western front

I've only had one friend test positive, but she's a stud and was cleared for return to work last week. My apt building has started supplying masks for residents, and has hired a 2nd janitor. Downtown still feels like the opening scene from 28 Days, which is creepy and cool simultaneously.

Biggest impacts on my life? Trying to love e-books, it's not easy. Groceries are getting expensive and under-stocked. Enjoying the quiet...you don't know how damn noisy a city is until the noise stops. Trying to be semi-productive, started online courses in Spanish, Chess, Guitar, and Ancient History. Also. drinking, smoking, and eating too much.

This is my virgin post (haven't been on any board or forum in 5 years) So howdy!
